Delly on the mend from knee injury

Maryborough’s Matthew Dellavedova is expected to be fit for next week’s start to the NBA season.

The Milwaukee Bucks guard has been hampered by a knee injury in recent weeks, but he returned to full training on Wednesday (AEST) and the club is confident he will play limited minutes in the final pre-season game against Detroit on Saturday (AEST).

The Bucks start their 2017-18 NBA title campaign against the Boston Celtics on Thursday, October 19 (AEST).
